I still can’t process what has happened. My stomach is in a pit. I’ve cried all day. I know where Jason is, I’ll see him one day. I can take solace in that. I Love you @JMyersWeather thank you for everything! You’re friendship and mentorship will never be forgotten!

@JoshGrahamShow SMU nor Indiana deserve a shot. Bama, South Carolina, or Ole Miss would put a better product on the field. Texas is a legit national championship contender. Far superior than SMU or Indiana.

@THEBELLECHANEL @fema @FCC But this was a law from Obama. It shouldn't matter which president it is coming from. Its for folks safety. Everyone is so divided by politics today, that if something for there good happens it's a bad thing if it is from Trump. .

@madmud69 @THEBELLECHANEL @fema @FCC because that is for local areas. this is a nationwide test at the same time. This is to ensure if something bad happened, the communication lines from FEMA will still operate.

Words can't describe how heartbroken I am @JMyersWeather was a friend & mentor. He helped me so much this year, chasing my dream. He was so excited when I told him I got a position at @WBTWNews13 I love you my friend. My prayers go to Jillian & the kids.

How cool! Cold chills! Just watched @NASA #DART #DARTMission where they placed a spacecraft into the path of an asteroid to see if it can change its orbit. This is humanity’s first attempt to planetary defense. Science and technology is so cool!

I’m just going to say this. the Government wants you to delete TikTok because it is a way for China to spy on you, but yet they allow a #ChineseSpyBallon to just float all over the Country. something doesn’t add up. #JustMyThoughts.
